I'm a working photographer, not a guy pointing a DSLR at aunt May then showing her the pic on the LCD display.
I don't use Canon, wanna know why? My buddy and I were working in the Canadian North doing some work for the National Research Council. They were paying for research, and we got a 6 week gig, a cold gig. He shoots Canon, I use Nikon.
To make a long story short, his Canon's didn't produce a bit of noise, because these things don't like cold climate. He shot 5,000 images during a 6 week assignment, for us that like changing the Boston Marathon to 5K. He was ticked off, and lost huge incentive bonus dollars due to lost results.
I shot 17,000 frames, and never missed a beat with my reliable, tried and true Nikons.
If you want the money shot, you have to be able to bring it home.
I use Nikon and Leica rangefinders, and I get paid.
